Seaspray Ocean View Retreat

Summary:
With heating in every room this beautifully presented brand-new double-storey home in Torquay’s Dunes Estate is ideal for wintertime family holidays, a couples’ getaway, or corporate guests. Sleeping up to 8 guests in 4 bedrooms, the sunny aspect, open plan living and multiple living areas provide space to relax and unwind, plus an alfresco area to relax and watch the kids play. This great location is close to shops, parks & beaches, equipped with everything for the perfect family getaway.

The Space:
Stunning photographic prints of the coast and beachscapes make a statement, setting the tone for calm and tranquillity upon arrival at this Surf Coast beach house.

Cool tones continue as you tread barefoot along the oak timber flooring, past the front lounge room toward the spacious, light and open living area. Immaculately styled, yet homely and welcoming, this communal space features sliding doors that encourage easy indoor-outdoor living. A large alfresco entertaining area with 8-seater setting, lawn & tropical gardens are the site for long summer afternoons and BBQ’s.

The stunning fresh white kitchen has wicker pendant lights over the entertainer's island bench which takes centre stage in this beautiful home. There are bar stools for informal meals and a dining table for 6 guests. Quality stainless steel appliances include a 900mm oven and gas cooktop, plus fully stocked crockery and essentials including a Nespresso coffee pod machine.

Two spacious lounge rooms provide functionality and comfort, with luxurious couches to curl up in and watch Netflix or use the wifi. Board games, children’s toys, a high chair and portacot are all available to make family holidays a breeze. There is a gorgeous powder room downstairs, convenient for guests.

Kids will love being able to come and go from the backyard and lawn for outdoor play, and parents will appreciate the secure, fully fenced yard and some toys for their entertainment.

The floorplan comprises all four bedrooms upstairs, plus a landing that offers versatile living space with sensational water views. The master is zoned for privacy and has a sitting area to enjoy phenomenal 180’ ocean views that take in the Barwon Heads Bluff, Pt Lonsdale Lighthouse and the distant shores of Point Nepean. This huge retreat space includes a gas log fireplace, palm frond ceiling fan, Smart TV, large ensuite, with walk-in shower, twin vanities and a separate toilet.

The main bathroom with shower, bath and toilet services the other bedrooms; two with Queen beds and the other with two single beds. They all have built-in robes and pedestal fans, plus ducted heating throughout and a split system air conditioner in the main living area.

All bedrooms have an abundance of natural light and space, and are beautifully appointed with luxury hotel quality sheets and bath towels, making your stay as pleasurable as possible. The master bedroom has reverse cycle heating and cooling and the large 7.5 kw downstairs reverse cycle units keeps the other bedrooms cool/warm. All bedrooms also have fans.

Master Bedroom – King Bed
Bedroom 2 – Queen Bed
Bedroom 3 – Queen Bed
Bedroom 4 – Two Single Beds (most suitable for children/teenagers)

Needs some Attention
We recently stayed at Seaspray for a week, it looked perfect in the photos but in reality it wasn’t in good condition. Took 30 minutes to find the ‘key safe’ tied to a gas meter on the ground and surrounded by huge overgrown grasses….simply ridiculous. The windows were dirty and the garden overgrown with weeds. We needed to wash the fridge before putting food away, and found dead insects around the stove top area. The master bedroom ensuite shower area had a window recessed area covered again in dead insects and dust. Numerous windows upstairs are locked and we could not cool the area down, thankfully not in peak summer as you would never be able to sleep. Please put some blinds up in the small landing study area, it is a sun trap for 8 hours increasing the temperature like a glasshouse. The owners need to attend the property for a day and give it the attention it deserves. I would return but would like to see the improvements.

Luxury Accommodation All Needs Met
Luxury style accommodation. The design of this home would suit large family stays. We had 4 adults on our trip and enjoyed the interior and exterior living areas. All furnishings and bedding high quality comfort. The bathrooms and kitchen had everything we needed. Lots of thought put into making our stay enjoyable. Highly recommend. Great host communication pre, during and post.

Amazing property ideally located for a family
The entire experience was fault free and very easy. The contact before arrival with an offer of assistance was well received and set the tone for the entire stay. Upon arrival the property was immaculate and contains everything you need to enjoy your vacation. Located slightly out of the hustle and bustle of Torquay centre it was really easy to travel to the nearby beaches and parking was no issue (even on the busy bank holiday). The outdoor area is well kept and very enjoyable - the perfect setting for a relaxing bank holiday weekend. When visiting Torquay again we will definitely be returning to this property. Thank you very much for your hospitality.
